VLTs are like heart transplants

VLTs are like heart transplants

  

“I believe that essentially the VLTs are no more than what a heart transplant is to a human. It’s going to keep the patient alive for a little while, but it doesn’t guarantee him a long life. If we don’t change the current business model of racing, harness racing will disappear, followed by thoroughbred racing.”
 
   Jeff Gural, owner of Tioga and Vernon Downs racetracks in New York in a 2005 Sportsman feature written by Bill Heller
